Sarah Boone verdict: Jury makes decision in 60 minutes in Florida suitcase murder trial

Jurors deliberated for about an hour Friday night to decide whether Sarah Boone was guilty or not of murder in the Feb. 2020 death of her boyfriend, Jorge Torres. Boone zipped her boyfriend inside a suitcase and despite it pleas to get out, did not unzip the luggage, the state testified. Instead, she went upstairs and went to bed. She found Torres dead inside the suitcase the next day.

Juror 3 didn’t even wait for madam clerk to finish. He is all of us.

Her plea deal was 15 years, and she’d have to serve 8, and she’s already served 4. Now her minimum sentence will be 22.5 years. What a genius.

[Mz.Crystal]

The fact she turned down an amazing plea deal thinking she could convince ANYONE that she was a victim, speaks volumes. This girl is a sociopath, narcissistic murderer!!

[SLYDIT]

So good that the verdict came in just one hour....and that included jury having dinner AND filling out the paperwork.😅

The public is safer. Lucas will be safer. Brian Boone will be safer. RIP Jorge

Sarah didn't get the candy and Pop-tarts she wanted, but she DID end up getting her just desserts.

[SanchoKobe]

Ridiculous that it took four and a half years to get to this point when her guilt was never in any doubt whatsoever.

I love the way male Juror #3 just jumped in loud & clear " *YES IT IS* "

[NickyRikki]

I’m so happy that Judge Kraynick let her have everything she wanted for her defence she can’t win on appeal.

“This suitcase… is closed”

The State

[JodieLang-LHR]

Feel sorry for the prison staff that now has to deal eith her daily.

[MJLover]

The jury ate dinner and said guilty!!😂

[jodyparkman]

I am so happy that Jorge’s family finally get to address this horrific, horid person that took this poor man’s life! It’s just so sad.
There was a Judge that I heard talk, and he said “ the wheels of justice turn very slow, but in the end, justice will prevail “! This…. Is that statement! She waited out 4.5 yrs playing games, delaying, mistreating her lawyers.. thinking all along she would find one to get her off. Well, that did not work!
Justice was served today!
RIP Jorge❤

She tortured that man and buried him alive in the box. Should be premeditated 1st degree.

[kathleenarmour]

If The judge gives her 30 years −4 years for time served, her son will be 40 by the time she gets out, best case scenario.

[Coppellgirl]

She is EXTREMELY dangerous to society. No Parole!!!

[encinobalboa]

60 minutes is about the time it takes to vote and then complete the verdict paperwork. They wanted to get the heck out of there as soon as possible.

[TheIndependentLens]

Wild how when they zoom in on her you can see the box and the top of the suitcase in the shot. I bet she hates that it’s sitting there! It’s almost like he’s in the courtroom. 😊

My heart goes out to his family ESPECIALLY HIS CHILDREN

If they returned a verdict in 60 minutes that means they probably deliberated for about 10 minutes or less. There is a lot of things the jury has to do they have to elect a fore person they have a bunch of paper work to fill out and they also ate dinner in that time so they pretty much had already decided before they even got in the room.
